Z-WAVE CONTROL

ADD THE DEVICE TO YOUR HUB

Initiate inclusion (pairing) in the application (or the web interface). If you are using an S2 hub, you will be asked to enter the DSK PIN or scan the QR code printed on the bottom of the sensor to complete inclusion.

REMOVE THE BATTERY TAB

Turn to open the sensor cover to access the battery.

Battery activation will automatically put the sensor into inclusion mode.

If it is not added within 30 seconds, try factory resetting it and including it manually.

MANUAL INCLUSION (PAIRING)

Bring the sensor within direct range of your Z-Wave hub
Put the Z-Wave hub into inclusion mode
Press and release the Z-Wave button 3 times quickly. The LED indicator will begin to blink rapidly and will become solid for one second to confirm inclusion
A new motion sensor will appear in your device list

S2 SmartStart compatible products can be added to a Z-Wave network by scanning the Z-Wave QR code present on the product with a controller offering SmartStart inclusion. No other action is required and the SmartStart product will be added automatically within 10 minutes after being powered on near the network.

Choose your hub and then click on the link to access the step-by-step pairing instructions:

TROUBLESHOOTING

Trouble adding the sensor to your hub? Try this:

Initiate EXCLUSION on your hub and click the Z-Wave button 3 times quickly. Then try adding it again
Move the sensor closer to your Z-Wave hub and try adding it again

EXCLUSION (DEVICE REMOVAL)

Bring the sensor within direct range of your Z-Wave hub
Put the Z-Wave hub into exclusion mode
Press and release the sensor’s Z-Wave button 3 times as quickly as possible
Your hub will confirm exclusion and the device will disappear from your controller’s device list

FACTORY RESET

If your primary controller is missing or inoperable, you may need to reset the device to factory settings. To complete the reset process manually, press and HOLD the sensor’s Z-Wave button for at least 20 seconds. The LED indicator will begin to blink blue. Once it becomes solid blue, immediately release the button. The LED will blink once to indicate that the factory reset was successful.

NOTE: All previously recorded activity and custom settings will be erased from the device’s memory.

WAKE UP MODE

The sensor wake-up interval is set to 12 hours by default to save battery. You can change the wake-up interval in the advanced settings if available in your system. During wake-up, the sensor receives communication from the gateway (parameter updates or network information). A long wake-up interval will not affect how often the sensor reports motion or vibrations to your gateway.

Manual Wake Up: Press and HOLD the Z-Wave button for 5 seconds to wake up the device. The LED will begin to blink.

You may need to wake up the sensor manually IF:

It does not fully configure during installation (status does not display or errors appear in your gateway interface)
You change the sensor’s advanced settings and want them to update
You include the sensor in any automations

MOUNTING

Recommendations: Use the mounting screw to securely attach the magnetic base to a flat surface of your choice.

OR: Use the adhesive tape to stick the base to a clean surface for a quick and hassle-free installation.

Positioning: Attach your sensor to the magnetic base and position it to cover the area you want to monitor. For best results, mount the sensor within 20 feet of the door and about 7 feet from the floor.

MOTION DETECTION RANGE

25 FEET (front range)
13 FEET (left/right range)
120° detection angle
See Settings for ways to optimize and customize motion detection and activity reports

ASSOCIATION

Associate your Motion Sensor with other Z-Wave devices for direct communication between them so that your rules and automations can take place even if the gateway is down. The Motion Sensor supports Group 1 (motion detection and battery level) and Group 2 (BASIC SET) with up to 5 devices for backup communication. To associate the sensor with other devices, put your Z-Wave controller into Association mode by sending the appropriate command and wake up the sensor by pressing and holding the Z-Wave button for 5 seconds.

SETTINGS

Please consult your controller’s user guide for advanced programming instructions, as they are slightly different for each software.

USB POWER

When used with a USB power adapter, the sensor will act as a Z-Wave signal repeater.

RANGE TEST TOOL

You can easily check if the sensor is within range of your Z-Wave gateway:

Press and hold the Z-Wave button for 10-15 seconds and release it to start the test. The LED indicator will then report the signal strength:

Solid blue = direct communication with the primary controller is stable
Slow blinking blue = communication quality is acceptable
Fast blinking blue = communication with the primary controller has failed

Press and release the Z-Wave button to exit test mode.
